We are living in a life-after-Das Racist (AD for short), and perhaps soon we will be without Heems, as well. His first official release, Eat Pray Thug, drops on March 10th and he has hinted that this might also be his last. The first single from the record is titled ‘Sometimes,’ and you can stream it along with ‘Soup Boys,’…

To build anticipation for his upcoming EP, Brenmar has just unleashed the title track ‘Award’. Connecting with rising rapper Dougie F (‘Back Up On It’) the two craft a smash that is primed to bang out in the club (both strip and night). The lyrics, “Clap like you just won an award, ass of the year, let em know it’s all…

Action Bronson preps his audience for his upcoming full length with a new track titled ‘Actin Crazy.’ The track is on the album, which is called Mr. Wonderful. It’s release date is March 24. One glance at the cover art for ‘Actin Crazy’ and you’re expecting Bam Bam is up to his regular antics; food jokes and generally pushing the envelope…

It’s a couple weeks before Bada$$ drops his first album and this track has me excited for it. ‘Teach Me’ is different from his usual material; it’s polished and upbeat. You could even say it’s radio-friendly. Kiesza’s verse and hook flies high thanks to the contrast with Joey’s thick rap bars, providing a little bit of sweet with the savoury.…

Nerzerk and Mr.Kruff connect with P.Keys for a fire new tune. ‘Dragon’ sees the producers crafting a mystic, hypnotizing trap backdrop. P.Keys brings the heat with cleverly themed wordplay, “still bling with no armour on, cause I don’t get touched like a hammer song, bitch I’m like Thor how my hammer strong, such a fuckin’ pilot how I land the…

One of our favourite new rappers of 2014, P.Keys, has just released the first visual of his Nobody EP. Opting to go for the title track, the video perfectly captures the vibe of the song: introspective, laid back and solitary. The fact that P.Keys is alone in the video really reinforces the feeling. P.Keys has been pretty quiet in terms of posting photos of himself online…

Young Thug gathers regular associates Rich Homie Quan and PeeWee Longway on ‘Hold Us,’ a perfect track to help you segway into your normal routine after the busy holidays. Take down that tree, put away the lights, and stick all that Christmas cash in a “bankroll that won’t fold up. ” Listen below: ‘Hold Us’:  ‘Lifestyle’: 

There was once a time when I anxiously awaited the end of the year to hear Skillz do his annual ‘Rap-Up’. After it falling off my radar for a few years I was pleased to see the ‘2014 Rap-Up’ pop up. Skillz perfectly captures all the year’s biggest events from pop culture, to social and political issues. It’s the perfect…

Florida emcee QuESt is back with a new track to celebrate hitting 30,000 followers on Twitter. ‘Decades’ features no hook and a cinematic haunting beat. This allows QuESt’s ill flow and bars to take center stage. The track bounces from battle rhymes, to reflecting on rough times back in Miami to his outlook for the future,  “I need whatever chicken…

P.Keys has quickly become one of our favourite new rappers of 2014. He garnered our attention earlier this summer when he ripped some of the hottest electonic beats with ease. From Kaytranada’s ‘Not To Play With’ and Mr Carmack’s ‘This Morning Was Funny’ to Troyboi’s ‘Forgive Me Not’ and Hucci’s ‘Realm’ every one impressed. With his buzz strong, the DC based…
